Glad the script helped. Very satisfying when wireless starts working.
Odd about having to turn the card on and off. I have never had that problem. In my experience the card is "off" until the modprobe ndiswrapper command executes. Then lights up.
I vaguely remember hearing of something like that when using ndiswrapper with the Microsoft supplied driver for the MN-720 pcmcia wireless card. I got around that by using a home-grown driver I discovered on the ndiswrapper site. But, whatever works...
I am not very knowledgable out programming in shell script. I believe there is some sort of input command that causes a pause until the user enters a keystroke. Probably there is a script primer online somewhere. Not much help here. Sorry.
The "&" is to allow the shell prompt to return before the command has completed execution. "Pump" in particular can take a while.
I am certain there is a bug in dsl 2.0 wrt to wireless. Other postings are indicating similar problems. Probably be fixed by the dsl team before long.
Cheers,
